I powder coated my rallyII's in chrome here at home. They look alot like cragars. That said, I would paint them. I've found that the powder doesn't get down into the seam in the wheel. Now I have some rust starting there.

Thats a point...I had a set of Ford 12 slot wheels powdercoated in factory silver/grey. They looked nice, but I noticed it didn't get into the seam between the centre and the rim nicely.
It probably would have looked better if I'd had the centres removed, powdercoated and refitted to new chrome rims or something.
